Gifts from above!!!



Sunshine ---Right now it is the nicest gift we have had in a while. I love spring and am so glad to see the little buttercups sticking their heads out. I did love the snow but all this cold--boy was it cold to go out in the morning to feed the chickens and let them out. Had to go into the house to get water from kitchen sink to water them. Broke holes in goat water and Ginger breaks hole in edge of pond for her and cows. No matter I love taking care of my animals. I do not know how the hens could lay so many eggs in the cold but they have been doing very well.
Omar has not been going out much and we have stayed home more because of the flu. My great grand babies have had it and some of the older ones too. I told them we didn't want them coming with a fever because any time Omar gets something it is worse on him now. I think they are all feeling better. Angela and Dianna have had it but are better. Angela is coming tomorrow to stay with her dad while I go to church.

This afternoon I was out feeding chickens and gathering the eggs. Out of the corner of my eye a movement and looked and had a gift entangled in the fence and tree ---two colorful balloons flowing back and forth in the wind and I thought ---balloons for my Valentine Gift. Someone had enjoyed them a while and then they got loose and floated through the sky to my house and lodged in the fence. It was so colorful against the winter background.

Proverbs 4:5
Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or swerve from them.

If you want wisdom you have to go after it. It takes resolve--a determination not to abandon the search once you begin no matter how difficult the road may become.
From Life Application Bible---New International Version

Have a wonderful Sunday.
